Disgruntled progressive activists and organizations have embarked on a campaign to push voters to mark themselves “uncommitted” in protest of Biden’s stance on the Israel-Hamas War.

With 95% of the expected vote tabulated, 70.5% of voters backed Biden while 19.0% went uncommitted, according to a tabulation by The Associated Press.

In Minnesota, more than 45,000 marked themselves “uncommitted” — a number greater than the margin by which Hillary Clinton defeated Donald Trump in the state in 2016.

    Okay, can we throw Biden under the buss for everything else?

    Like you know, not defending abortion rights….

    … not doing much more than corpo handouts for climate change….

    …. Not protecting voting rights…

    ….not packing the courts so now we have the 14th in serious jeopardy?

    There’s more. But like, I don’t have time.

        No but he is the nominal leader of his party. And he- along with most every democrat- just rolled over.

        Keep in mind Biden is a very large part of how we got here in the first place, a leader in politics for longer than I’ve been alive.

        He doesn’t get to take credit for the things that happened in congress and then skate on the blame for stuff that didn’t happen.
